Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

  My personal review:      We had already discussed what a Consolation is in music in a previous article , as well as the possible sources of inspiration for Franz Liszt, the first composer to use the name Consolation for one of his pieces.      Donna Mitchell's Consolation No. 2 creates a calm, poetic, meditative atmosphere.      It is a piece in two sections, each of which is divided into three subsections, plus an introduction and a coda; its slow and leisurely tempo, as well as the constant accompaniment of arpeggios, are the main characteristic of this piece.      It is worth noting that the second section, although it feels like a restatement, has certain variations (especially in the second subsection), which create some interest for the listener, which is further enlivened by the surprising coda.      Mitchell's social links:      YouTube (Channel 1)      YouTube (Chann...

Iрина Степанова-Боровская - Маленька п'єса для Вікторії / Irina Stepanova-Borovskaya - A Little Piece for Victoria

  My review:

     A Little Piece for Victoria by Irina Stepanova-Borovskaya, is a beautiful and tender piano piece in three sections, with a melodic texture accompanied by arpeggios in the left hand, which lends a certain homogeneity and unity to the entire composition, and a moderate tempo.

The only difference between the second section and the other two is the melodic theme, which changes completely. The recapitulation (third section) is particularly noteworthy, being considerably shorter than the first and varied in its accompaniment, as the arpeggios are replaced by arpeggiated ones.
